Tottenham boss praises Modric

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has reserved special praise for Luka Modric, insisting that the player is worthy of being labelled world class.

Redknapp said: "I think we have Modric, though it's difficult for me to say because they are my players. We have got some terrific players. Gerrard and Torres would probably fit in your team if you were picking your world team.

"Not too many clubs have got two world-class players. I'm talking about the very, very best players. If you look at Arsenal, how many world-class players? Cesc Fabregas , maybe Robin Van Persie when he is fit."
